[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JBCACHE-644) FileCacheLoader fails if FQN contains illegal/too many characters

[Galder Zamarreno (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCACHE-644?page=all ]

Galder Zamarreno resolved JBCACHE-644.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Done

Substituting invalid characters for invalid characters would be quite an 
overhead for FCL.

If you wanna avoid portability issues, don't use certain characters which 
are not recommended for FCL or Fqn.

As a result, warnings are being logged so that users are aware that 
using some of the characters could affect the portability of their application:

- When creating an FCL root location, check for any non portable 
characters throwing a warning. Checks '*' '<' '>' '|' '"' '?'

- When storing attributes, check that the Fqn tree does not contain non 
portable characters. Checks '*' '<' '>' '|' '"' '?' and also '\' '/' and ':'

- When storing attributes as well, check for entire path that could be 
bigger than 255 characters throwing a warning.

> The FileCacheLoader should encode the FQN string so that it is a valid filename.
